Copper strikes and rail earnings hint at mixed postwar recovery
Reports from Lake Superior copper districts indicate most mines near normal staffing after the summer strike, with Isle Royale and Ahmeek still below full force. Several dividend payers suspended, and Calumet & Hecla and related mines cut rates. February may mark a historic copper output high due to richer ore and new smelting joins. Baltimore & Ohio earnings drop sharply, signaling rail sector weakness. Loose-Wiles Biscuit shows slim profits in year end, despite stock issuance against earnings power.
